Hi pablod!It looks that your tablet was picked up by the evdev driver.In order to make the tablet working with the wacom driver I guess you should create /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/52-genius-on-wacom.conf with the following content:

If you see 9x12 Tablet stylus in xinput's output then probably your tablet has been picked up by the wacom driver. But unfortunately there are no guaranties that it is actually going to work with the wacom driver.

Just a little detail the file y put it in "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/52-genius-on-wacom.conf" i have ubuntu 12.10 i dont know if have anything to do jeje.

Hello, I hope this topic will be open again.. before posting i read all posts already sent and actually i wanna thank you all for real, due to the help and support given. However even if i tried to apply the solutions i found here i've some trouble.. and i cannot make my genius mousepen 8*6 working in Krita, even if it works in Gimp, Mypaint, etc... (yeah, i read bout the Qt stuff and i tried to modify it, in my case v. 4.8.3, but in an useless way, after all it doesn't work yet)Also i'm pretty new bout linux and Ubuntu world, i faced on it using Ubuntusutio's xcfe less than 2 months ago before trying unity and then finding Kde as perfect for me; so if someone can exactly explain me how to fix my Qt to make my tablet working properly in Krita i will be very happy!Thanks in advance

hello!.. I'm using Ubuntu 12.10 and I have created /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/52-genius-on-wacom.conf whit the following content:Section "InputClass" Identifier "Kye class" MatchProduct "i608X" MatchIsTablet "on" MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*" Driver "wacom"EndSection ..But I can not click in anything .. I can only move the cursor.. any suggestions?

I am not sure if it's going to work but I guess it's worth a try.If the tablet was picked up by the wacom driver you should see Aiptek stylus in the input list (instead of just Aiptek).

@whelytoncosta

I am using xubuntu 12.10 64bit and my Genius Mousepen i608X works perfectly with the wacom driver. I can click with the pen and with the mouse too.Can you give me the output of the xinput command? (To see if the pen actually was picked up by the wacom driver.)

@EscapedNightInstead of recompiling Qt you can always try to make your pen work with the wacom driver. As far as I know there are a lot of tablets works well with the wacom driver too.

@areid I guess you are using the evdev driver for your tablet currently. (You do not need any other driver for your tablet, at least according to my best knowledge.) Can you use it in gimp/mypaint or in other painting program?You can try to make your tablet work with the wacom driver. For that create /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/52-uclogic-on-wacom.conf with the following content:

I am not sure if it's going to work but I guess it's worth a try.If the tablet was picked up by the wacom driver you should see UC-LOGIC Tablet WP8060U stylus in the input list (instead of just UC-LOGIC Tablet WP8060U).

creating that conf file didnt make it work. Actually did a bad thing. Suppose x10,y11 is a point on screen... where the pentip is placed...now you cant move the pen to anywhere you want...to do so, you have to draw it from x10,y11, and draw from the new point to another place...mean the tablet doesnt recognize the movement of the pen on it's surface, it only recognizes when it is touched with the surface.Deleting the conf file solves this and reverts back to normal. means everything works except krita.

While you were using the conf file, have you checked the output of the xinput command? But anyway It seems that this tablet is not compatible with the wacom driver, so I guess you guys should wait until Qt will be compatible with the evdev driver (the bug has now an assignee so don't give up hope ...) or compile Qt yourself.

Yeah ofcourse I checked the xinput. It showed two entry of UC-Logic, first one showed "UClogic WP8060U ...........................touch.............id.........."the second one was unchanged. I cant remember that line exactly, but the difference was that 'touch' thing. it wasn't before and was gone after i deleted the conf file.

Anyways, I will get old or will get rich enough to buy a wacom until then. SO, Maybe I can try patching the Qt? What maximum can happen? Maybe i have to reinstall my Ubuntu if it mess up!

So can you describe the patching procedure? I'm not so old in Linux world, so i still need a detailed process. And I'm not on KDE environment.

And Qt is supposed to be in my system by default? because if I command qtconfig in terminal, it says no such program, install qt4-qtconfig
